Practices in Community-Engaged Humanities Research

Join JHI Fellow Jaclyn Rohel as she hosts her research collaborators for a conversation about co-creating community-engaged research. This virtual roundtable will highlight practices in applied humanities research based on Catering Communities, a project in collaboration with the neighbourhoods-based food organization caterToronto. Members of the multidisciplinary team will discuss topics related to community-based relationship-building, equity and research co-production, knowledge translation, and public engagement, and they will share some of the lessons they learned along the way. The event will conclude with an interactive Q&A.
